Accused Nanny has history of charges involving violence

Sitter City pulls Brady posting after baby dies

Aisling McCarthy Brady, the nanny accused in the death of a 1-year-old girl in her care, posted her profile on a number of child-care websites, including Sitter City.

Brady started advertising her services the moment she arrived from Ireland in 2002. Sitter City said it has removed the woman's ads from the site.

"Immediately upon learning of this situation, we removed Ms. Brady from the Sittercity network, terminated her membership and notified members with whom she had ever communicated even though she has not been active on Sittercity for nearly a year,"company said in a statement.

Brady has no criminal convictions in Massachusetts.

But Team 5 Investigates uncovered an arrest for a violent fight with a roommate and two restraining orders, including from a woman who claims Brady harassed her, set up a fake Facebook page in her name and accused her of abusing children.

Brady's upstairs neighbors say they've tangled with her over the five years she's lived there.

"The anger that she would display around the neighborhood I know what she's capable of. I wouldn't leave my dog with her. I wouldn't let her watch my dog," neighbor Tom Collins said.

Brady pleaded not guilty on Tuesday.

Her lawyer claims the baby was sick after a lengthy trip overseas.

"My understanding is for the last five weeks she's been traveling to London, to Pakistan and Saudi Arabia," defense attorney Melinda Thompson said.

The baby's father, Sameer Sabir, studied at Harvard and MIT and developed pioneering skin-graft procedures. Her mother, Nada, is a Princeton-educated financial analyst.

Once an autopsy is complete, Brady is expected to be charged with murder.
